25-pack red wire connectors for 18-10 AWG

The Gardner Bender 25-pack supplies red twist-on connectors rated for 18 to 10 AWG solid or stranded copper conductors. Each connector handles a minimum combination of two 14 AWG wires and a maximum of two 10 AWG with two 12 AWG wires. The bag contains 25 pieces for residential, automotive or light industrial splicing tasks.

Thermoplastic shell resists environmental extremes

The tough thermoplastic shell shields the connection against environmental extremes while the deep skirt design prevents bare wire exposure. High dielectric material provides superior flash-over protection during sustained electrical load. UL 486C listing and CSA certification confirm compliance with Federal Specification W-5-610d for continuous duty applications.

Color-coded red for quick size identification

The red color-coding allows immediate visual identification of the 18-10 AWG capacity on a busy job site. Firm-grip surface texture ensures positive torque application when threading wires by hand or with a tool. Deep skirt and high dielectric construction reduce the risk of accidental contact during maintenance or inspection.

Questions about this item

Do the red WireGard connectors get hot when carrying full-load current all day?

The thermoplastic shell is rated for the 18-10 AWG range and meets UL 486C temperature-rise limits, so normal continuous operation stays within safe thermal bounds.

What wire gauges and tools must I already have to use these connectors?

You need solid or stranded copper wire between 18 AWG and 10 AWG — minimum two 14 AWG, maximum two 10 AWG plus two 12 AWG — and a stripper or knife; no special crimp tool is required.

Will these red connectors work reliably with older cloth-insulated wiring I’m keeping in the house?

They splice copper-to-copper only; cloth-insulated conductors must be stripped to clean copper and fall within the 18-10 AWG combo limits for a secure connection.
